Hard to see Caddy succeeding where everyone else has failed. Americans are going to cling to their SUV's till the bitter end.

Just proving that GM still doesn't get product development, the CTS and CTS V wagons are huge, yet lack the option of a fold down flat rear facing seat that would boost seating to 7 and make it an actually family friendly wagon. Probably because the Escalade product manager forbade the CTS team from providing a worthwhile competitor in the 2 adults and 4-5 kids hauler category.

So the E350 and E63 Mercedes wagons will continue to win this category.

Ask the typical American parents if they want to install their toddlers in a 3rd row rear-facing seat. AKA the crumple zone. I don't knock Mercedes for doing it - we just admired one the other day. But still, that's the crumple zone...

Now that BMW dropped the 5 series wagon for US and the E wagon so ugly (sorry folks if you you like your car to look like an expectant sedan) the caddy wagon is it. If you want to seat more kids in a high quality and safety; the pseudo wagon R Class does a great job ( just don't let the kids open the rear doors all the way).
